This Is The Lowest McCain Has Sunk Yet The increasingly sleazy John McCain, who once promised to run a clean campaign, has now attacked my friend Rashid Khalidi and attempted to use him against Barack Obama. Khalidi is an American scholar of Palestinian heritage, born in New York and educated at Yale and Oxford, who now teaches at Columbia University. He directed the Middle East Center at the University of Chicago for some time, and he and his family came to know the Obamas at that time. Knowing someone and agreeing with him on everything are not the same thing.

Foreclosure Alley For the past few years, the Inland Empire in Riverside County has been one of the fastest growing counties in the state - home to a major housing boom.  But now the Inland Empire is pretty much the poster child for the foreclosure crisis.  In the newer developments, house after house sits vacant - either up for auction, for sale by a bank or going for what’s called a “short sale” which is when the owner owes more than the house is worth. vid

FDA CONSPIRED WITH CHEMICAL INDUSTRY TO DECLARE BISPHENOL-A HARMLESS The FDA has been caught red-handed conspiring with the chemical industry to conclude that Bisphenol-A, the plastics chemical, is harmless to human health. As revealed by the Environmental Working Group (see below), the FDA based its evaluation of BPA on a report authored by the American Chemistry Council (ACC), a trade group that represents chemical companies and plastics manufacturers

Stevia to be Outlawed? FDA Urged to Declare Stevia a "Drug" and Ban Its Sale by A two-man law firm from Washington DC has petitioned the US Food and Drink Administration (FDA) to prevent the addition of steviol glycosides to food. The petitioner, identified as Coburn & Coffman PLLC, contends that stevia glycosides (SGs) are drugs and therefore cannot be legally added to conventional foods.

Lead Researcher on BPA Study Accepts $5 Million Charles Gelman, a retired manufacturer of syringes and medical filtration devices who considers Bisphenol A (BPA) to be "perfectly safe", gave $5 million to the research center headed by Martin Philbert, the chairman of a Food and Drug Administration panel about to rule on the chemical's safety. The donation is nearly 25 times larger than the $210,000 annual budget of the University of Michigan Risk Science Center, where Philbert is founder and co-director. Philbert failed to disclose the donation to the FDA, and agency officials only learned of it through reporters.

How Iraqi Democracy May Mean An Early U.S. Withdrawal Asked earlier this week by Wolf Blitzer whether he'd honor an agreement between the U.S. and Iraq to withdraw American troops by the end of 2011, presidential candidate John McCain chided the CNN anchor: "You know better than that, Wolf. You know it's condition-based, and that's what the big fight was all about," McCain said, referring to his difference with Barack Obama over when and how to withraw U.S. forces from Iraq. Whereas Obama has sought to set a 16-month deadline for U.S. withdrawal, McCain has denounced that as defeatist and insisted that any decision to withdraw should be based on U.S. commanders' assessment of security conditions on the ground.

Stocks, oil, gold tank on growing recession fears. Stock market rout spreads around the world as recession worries turn to dismay. Stock markets around the world plummeted Friday and oil prices plunged to their lowest in more than a year. Even gold, the traditional safe haven in times of panic, fell sharply. The common denominator was growing fears that governments, central banks and finance ministers seem powerless to stop the deepening of a global recession that will slam corporate earnings and lead to deep job losses around the world.

Will 2008 election be stolen? Stories appearing in such publications as the New York Times and Rolling Stone magazine have found evidence that (1) Al Gore may very well have defeated Bush in Florida during the 2000 election if the Democrat had pushed for and the courts had allowed a statewide recount and (2) massive fraud may have occurred in Ohio during the 2004 election to deny Democrat John Kerry the White House.

Fool Me Once... Sadly, the time for change has already come and gone. This is just another election where the American citizen is presented with “the lesser of two evils” and nothing in the past four years since we allowed George W. Bush to steal another election with the gang rape of the Ohio voters. There are so many people in this country that understood what happened in 2000 and 2004 during those “stolen elections”, you would tend to believe that many of us would have already changed the system

World According to Monsanto Monsanto's controversial past combines some of the most toxic products ever sold with misleading reports, pressure tactics, collusion, and attempted corruption. They now race to genetically engineer (and patent) the world's food supply, which profoundly threatens our health, environment, and economy. Combining secret documents with first-hand accounts by victims, scientists, and politicians, this widely praised film exposes why Monsanto has become the world's poster child for malignant corporate influence in government and technology. 109 minutes

The Environmental Working Group says triclosan has been linked to developmental defects, liver toxicity, and cancer in lab studies. It also may affect thyroid and other hormones that are crucial to normal development

The Forgotten U.S. War On The Iraqi People On October 3, 2008, the Washington Post reported that the Pentagon is paying $300 million to U.S. contractors to produce pro-U.S. propaganda for Iraqi audiences “in an effort to ‘engage and inspire’ the local population to support U.S. objectives and the puppet government”. The aim of this psychological warfare is to normalise the murderous Occupation and cover-up the slaughter of innocent Iraqi civilians.

Pentagon Wants $450 Billion Increase Over Next Five Years  Pentagon officials have prepared a new estimate for defense spending that is $450 billion more over the next five years than previously announced figures.The new estimate, which the Pentagon plans to release shortly before President Bush leaves office, would serve as a marker for the new president and is meant to place pressure on him to either drastically increase the size of the defense budget or defend any reluctance to do so, according to several former senior budget officials who are close to the discussions.

Sarah Palin Broke The Ethics Law In Alaska, And Can Be Impeached

As governor, Palin at times bonds church and state The camera closes in on Sarah Palin speaking to young missionaries, vowing from the pulpit to do her part to implement God's will from the governor's office. What she didn't tell worshippers gathered at the Wasilla Assembly of God church in her hometown was that her appearance that day came courtesy of Alaskan taxpayers, who picked up the $639.50 tab for her airplane tickets and per diem fees. Since she took state office in late 2006, the governor and her family have spent more than $13,000 in taxpayer funds to attend at least 10 religious events and meetings with Christian pastors, including Franklin Graham, the son of evangelical preacher Billy Graham, records show.

The beauty of the check point

The financial meltdown has begun to hit the small Nordic countries very hard. This week Iceland - the smallest of the Nordic countries - lost two of its three major banks.

The country's largest bank - Kaupthing - is barely hanging in there. This once proud bank dropped 34% yesterday alone. Today, the government finally nationalized Kaupthing. Landsbanki is the country's second largest bank and it was taken over by the government on Tuesday. The government already took over Glitnir - the 3rd largest bank - a few weeks ago. But the effort was abandoned this week, and the government put this bank into receivership (that's code for "bankrupt"), due to difficulties much greater than anticipated.

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage problems, and foreclosure. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for each individual.
